Ok, after my 91 left me stranded on the freeway, after countless nights to keep it running for trips, it was time to upgrade.
Picked up this Suburban.
99 K2500 454/4l80e
White/Grey, LT Trim.
Showed up with:
side steps (removed)
air bags (removed)
Custom Front Bumper / Fog Lights / Chrome Grill
Backup Lights cut into rear bumper
Flowmaster exhaust with nice single exit tip
Hardware FM modulator thing for Ipod
265's on 16x8 Centerlines, with stock center caps.
Tinted Front Windows
Got sorta screwed by the Dealer, and he ended up having to split a full brake job with me. So when i get it back tonight, it will have all new brakes!
Next, is tires. The dealer i bought it from had Firestone put on a set of P265/75R16 tires. Rated at 2601lbs per tire. Rear axle GWR is 6k.
Firestone manager said he'd try to work with me if i bring the invoice in, and help me get into a set of correct tires.
If that is the case, i'll get rid of the Centerlines on it, in favor of some 2000+ style factory alcoas.
Also hoping to pickup a Van style Bedrug tonight, and cut to fit for the rear. Like the carpet idea, and loved the tough liner i had in my other burb, as i often throw greasy/wet stuff back there.
Pics to be added when i get home.
Current things to fix:
A/C - Hopefully needs a recharge
Slow Starting - Fuel filter, check Regulator, Fuel Pump Relay
Tstat - Needs a proper 195˚
Rear Struts - Getting Weak
Headlight Switch - Rubber is gone (I'm a picky bastard)
Front License Plate Bracket to be added
Figure out why rear wiper isn't working
Add Key/Headlight chime module back in - Anyone know what this is officially called?
Fix sticking power locks
Going to try and hold off on full stereo for a while, but may install an extra deck i have sooner rather than later.
Would also like a real alarm some time soon, but we'll see how funds end up.
